Windows 2000 and Windows Server subcommands
The CCI software provides subcommands for the Windows 2000 and
Windows Server platforms that are executed as options (-x <command>
<arg>) of another command. When you specify a subcommand as the only
option of a command, you do not need to start HORCM. If another option of
the command and the subcommand is specified on the same command line,
place the other option after the subcommand.
Findcmddev subcommand
The findcmddev subcommand (find command device) searches for
command devices within the specified range of disk drive numbers. If it is
found, the command device is displayed in the same format as in the
configuration definition file. This subcommand is used when the command
device name is not known. Table 1-27 lists and describes the findcmddev
subcommand parameters. Figure 1-56 shows an example of the
findcmddev subcommand used as an option of the raidscan command
output.

The following searches for command devices in the range of disk drive
numbers 0 to 20.

Figure 1-56: Findcmddev Subcommand
CAUTION! The findcmddev subcommand must be used when HORCM is
not running.
NOTE: The findcmddev subcommand searches for the physical and logical
devices associated with the command device. If the command device is
indicated as a logical device, you must delete the drive letter assigned to
the command device to prevent utilization by general users. The physical
drive number may change at every reboot. If the number changes, use
\\.\CMD-Ser#-ldev#-Port# or Volume{guid} for which the same name is
kept. Volume{guid} is created when you make a partition by using the
Windows’ Disk Management. Do not format.
